Rush of Land
Seekers Continues.
Though the registration for the forest
reserve land drawing was the heaviest
on tho opening day, tho number of ar
rivals has averaged over 2,000 since
Monday, and it is generally believed
that tho total by Saturday evening of
next week will not fall much shortjof
25,000. Though up to this time practi
cally ten thousand visitors havo been in
North Platte, tho crowd each day and
night has been well taken care of both
as to lodging and eating accommoda
tions In fact there has been no night whon
there were not mora avniinble rooms
than wero needed. Sleeping accommo
dations wero further increased Tuesday
when Perry Carson shipped in fifty or
more cots nnd ptaced them in the Lloyd
opera house. Tho number of visitors
during the day is always greater than
at night, as a majority of those who ar
rive on the day trains leave on tho
night trains. Tho train service on the
Union Pacific is so excellent that it ia
possible to arrive from the east at 5:80
in the ovening and leave at 10:30 the
same night, or arrive in tho morning
and leave at noon. The service west is
almost as convenient.
The patronage at the restaurants and
boarding houses during the past four or
five days haa been the greatest ever
known in tho city, while hundreds of
lunches are served daily at the street
stands.
Those coming to register are from all
parts of the country, some coming from
as far east as Ohio. Outside of Ne
braska, tho state of Kansas leads in the
number, with Iowa next and Missouri
and Oklahoma a close fourth. It is es
timated that 2,500 of tho arrivals have
been by automobiles. At least 100 cars
have came through from Kansas, and
not a fow have made the trip from
Iowa in enrs.
Those registering represent all classes
and conditions of men; the well-to-do
appearing man elbowing with the man
whoso appearance would indicate
that he had to borrow the
quarter to pay his registra
tion fee. A large per centage of those
registering are young.men. yot many
old soldiers have registered by execut
ing powers of attorney to agents.
Quite a few' women have registered,
and it is reported that half a hundred
Omaha school-ma'ams will -arrive to
morrow.
A special train of twelve cars from
points in Kansas is expected Tuesday
or Wednesday qf next week. There
will be GOO or 700 in this Kansas party.
There are many North Platto people
who have not yet registered; waiting
evidently for a cessation of the rush.
The biggest crowd at the registra
tion booths follows the ai rival of each
train; aa soon as the tram comes to a
stop there isxa pell mell rush to get
off and a hurried walk t the booth.
The registration work proceeds like
cleck-wark, it is as perfect aa though
machine made and machine driven.
The force of notaries is always ample
to take care of tho rushes, and
there isino long standing in lino. From
200 to 300 an hour can be handled if
necessary. Each local train from the
east brings in from 150 to 300; those
from the west from fifty to 100. This
has been the average so far this week,
and at present it looks as though the
avurago would continue until the close.
Many passengers who go throuch on
Uie fast trains take advantage of the
opportunity to register, having just
about enough timo to make n run for
the booth, register nnd got back to
tho donot before the train leaveB.
Contracts have been let for sidewalks
to east H St, on south Pine St and on
Dewey St. to irrigation ditch. All in
Taylor's addition.

Why Thoir Clothes Didn't Fit.
Tho Into Admiral Itobley D. Evans
during his visit to Japan was received
by Mutsuhlto and his empress at a
court ceremony. In speaking of tho
Jnpnneso coiu;t hp said:
"Hand kissing was not tho thing. In
stead, I received n handshake from a
very slinpoly and beautiful hand. 1
found tho empress a woman of great
refinement and perfect ease of man
ner, so delicate in appearance and so
small in stature aa to remind you of
sonio fine piece of Dresden clilna. She
was attired In a Paris gown of helio
trope brocade, tho bad lit of which I
accounted for just as I accounted for
tho baggy trousers of the emperor.
After 1 had been n year in Japan I
wna satisfied It was owing to tho fact
that a tailor would not penult himself
to touch the persons of their majesties,
but just looked nt thorn and fnipssed
what the measurements should bo."
Long Lived Spaniards,
Though the nverngoligo of Spanlnrds
is among the lowest In Europe thirty
two years and four months, against
fifty years In Sweden nnd Norway
yet Spain remnlna tho land of hundred-year-old
people.
South of the Sierra Moreno there
nro fifty to sixty a hundred years old
in ovcry million inhabitants. In Ma
laga and other parts of Andalusia 300
hundred-year-olds aro reckoned in
every million Inhabitants. And when
a Spaniard onco ottalna that nge ho
usually hangs on to life for ten to fif
teen years longer.
Ono of tho famous long lived men of
Spain Was Dr. flannel Bnrca, who lies
burled in the Church of San Sebastian
nt Seville, having 121 years to his
credit, nccordlng to tho church rec
ord, no loft 300 descendants. Boston
